Send your answers to george@bwsailing.com. A winner will be selected randomly from the correct answers.

 

Many thanks to all of you show sent in answers to last week’s question on time zones. The winner this week is Mark Monogold, SV Samba Girl who emailed:  “15° is one 24th of the 360° around the earth. The time zones are roughly 15° but are adjusted for practical reasons to minimize splitting off areas of nation’s population into different zones.”
